Core Tip |
Radiotherapy is an important modality in the curative management of head and neck carcinoma. However, it is also associated with significant morbidity. Radiation-induced second malignancies, particularly radiation-induced sarcomas (RIS), are arguably the most devastating sequelae associated with radiotherapy. This review examines the common trends, pathophysiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis and management of RIS in head and neck cancers. |
